My First Build

[KevinKevin]

I built my first computer yesterday and I must say performance is just amazing.

Specifications:

AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ Dual-Core Processor 2.30GHZ
Asrock ALiveNF6G-VSTA
2GB of Memory DDRII/DDR2
40GB Hard Drive (updating to 160GB soon)
nVidia Geforce 6150 (integrated graphics)
Windows XP Home Edition

I find my system amazing. It played Flight Simulator X surprisingly amazing.

I'd kick the onboard graphics if i were you and get a decent graphics card, you'll notice a huge increase in overall speed, the onboard graphics really does slow things down quite a bit.

Dump the onboard... get something better...

Get an better motherboard & overclock the rig...

Case?

My Sempron 2600+ suits me perfectly! No need to upgrade! Faster than my E4300.

I haven't got the money at the moment.
Am I able to find a cheap decent graphics card from the UK?
